the son of Mastanabal and a grandson of Masinissa. Gauda was thus also
a half-brother of Jugurtha. He was the father of
Hiempsal II and the
grandfather of Juba I.
According to
SallustSallust during the Jugurthine War, Gauda had petitioned
the Roman commander Q. Caecilius Metellus to allow him a seat, like a
prince, next to himself, and a troop of horse for a bodyguard; but
Metellus had refused both demands because such a seat was granted only
to those whom the Roman people had addressed as kings, and the guard
would be seen as an indignity to Romans

SectariansSectarianismSectarianism is a form of bigotry, discrimination, or hatred arising
from attaching relations of inferiority and superiority to differences
between subdivisions within a group. Common examples are denominations
of a religion, ethnic identity, class, or region for citizens of a
state and factions of a political movement.
The ideological underpinnings of attitudes and behaviours labelled as
sectarian are extraordinarily varied. Members of a religious, national
or political group may believe that their own salvation, or the
success of their particular objectives, requires aggressively seeking
converts from other groups; adherents of a given faction may believe
that for the achievement of their own political or religious project
their internal opponents must be converted or purged.
Sometimes a group that is under economic or political pressure will
kill or attack members of another group which it regards as
responsible for its own decline
